The embodiment of unique sensual existence,
life is the construct of esoteric sublime elements,
suffused supremely with the aspects of devout spirit
within the transcendent trinity of heart, mind and soul.
Beneath the sensitive surface of mortal perception,
my heart resonates the silent cadence of inner intent,
modulated by the inspiring melody of awareness,
that harmonizes with the concerto of awakening.
Under the multi-layered lattice of the architect mind,
the soul at the immeasurable meditative depth,
where consciousness is the light of eternal truth,
enduringly reflects the preeminence of heavenly glow.
Beneath the serene facade of rippling feelings,
the benign mind transitorily builds sensory images
on the fleeting screen of spiritual mindfulness,
transmitted inward to set the soul on divine flight.
Released from the psychic clasp of karmic destiny,
my essence transcends the limits of time and space.
The intent to embrace the realm of perpetual peace
arouses my soul to ascent to the zenith of godliness.

Not all inherit a father's noble name,
Some learn deceit, others theft, and shame.
But I, blessed with a virtuous sire,
Inherited values that my heart desires.
My children will learn to reverence age,
With humility and sobriety, they'll engage.
A caring heart, I'll pass on to them,
Diligence and God-fearing, their guiding gem.
Emancipator, Eldorado, Ephaptha too,
Will learn the core values, integrity shines through.
Estevan and Estefan, honesty and love,
Will be their guiding principles, sent from above.
I'll uphold godliness with contentment true,
A legacy of virtue, forever shining through.

Winter nights.
Soft lights.
The fog floating around reminiscing of the ghosts of your past.
Two souls, bared in silence.
Whispers of doubt and assurances of love,
Touching your skin with cold hands feels like sin.
But the pools of brown look like altars.
Where I worship you and continue to sin for my mortal body.

If any of us may attain virtue
It would be via forgiveness
as well as forgetting

The church today seems sadly lacking
but what is it that's it's the real need?
something significant needs be found
for its survival action needed at speed
Basic godliness is a real requirement
being believers showing the spirit's fruit
of holiness, humility and sound doctrine
need dig deep down to the root
A real believing in God answers prayer
not just a routine of prayer each day
but a deep heart change of certainty
to believe God hears what you say
Now dwell deep on God's love
which would give you real assurance
for God's love eternal and certain
as Jesus shows splitting the curtain
Now, will the church rise again?
showing themselves true in devotion
in godliness, prayer and loving Jesus
committed fully making God our solution
(Having read an article on this title made think about the need for today's church to rise again showing God to be the world's answer to its present problems. )

The uniformity of death
Blue and White
Fattened out with pin stripes
Until they did not resemble
A single shred of humanity
A ghost in all but name
Shamed and maimed
Dead behind the eye's and soul
Destined for the showers
Where cleanliness,
Is next to godliness
Meant exactly that

Of Cleanliness and Godliness, the adage appoints;
God will be proximate to the most cleanly joints.
Now, Craig’s place is clean, I mean, his pad is bright!
And Steve lives on Craig’s left while I’m on the right.
The way that I figure, if that old saying’s true,
Then Steve’s digs are painted a deified hue.
Steve must be holy as holy can be,
‘Cause he’s next to Craig’s place, and God is not me!

It falls...
With grace above pearl clouds
Afore it screams once more
It will scream one thousand
Before you lose your breath
High above reproach
It makes the speeds it sounds
Unheard tears cry symphonic
But, all I hear is death
Play the notes which hold
Cutting circumstance upon the air
Like silent wings from heaven
They spread...
Beating, down and down
Blowning kisses to the soldiers
Ending up on killing ground
Shadows on buildings is all that's left
And somewhere else I'm sure regret

Are the riches in life what
you wish to obtain?
"Godliness with contentment
is of great gain."
Being content and Godly
is often difficult to do.
With the constant plasures
of life alluring you.
"How can one be content?"
You may ask.
God will never require of you
an impossible task.
A peace beyond understanding
you will find.
When you begin to walk
with a Christ-like mind.
The tresure of knowing Jesus
will abide very well.
He gives more joy than words could ever tell!
"Take this world but give me Jesus,"
will be your heart's cry.
All of your needs--God will supply!
True contentment comes from
falling in love with him.
His grace is sufficient for what
"feels empty within."
Don't be "held down" by
things only temporary.
Enter God's haven of rest... His sanctuary!
The joy of knowing Jesus will
bring peace to your soul!
By allowing him to bring restoration
and to make you whole!
